Like Charles Baudelaire, the 19th century French poet who penned the "Invitation au Voyage" in the Norman port city of Honfleur, we invite you on a voyage of discovery to this land of lush pastures, rugged, rocky coasts, milk-white cliffs that plunge precipitously into the sea; of vast stretches of fine sandy beaches, bathed in a soft and shimmering light so prized by the Impressionists. A land of charming manor houses and magnificent churches. Where the gentle spectacled Normandy cow whose milk produces celebrated cheeses, grazes beneath the apple trees from which come sparkling cider, pommeau and calvados - the foundations of a sensational regional cuisine.

Share our passion. We will work with you to design a self-drive, personalized itinerary, reflecting your particular interests and tastes, and to select hotels and restaurants. We will make all your reservations and we will send you your own guide book, with detailed driving instructions, maps, and descriptions of the sites you will visit and the stories behind them. We will tell you where to buy souvenirs, where to stop for a coffee break, and where to sample a fine Camembert or taste a fiery Calvados.

Contact us today or, if you prefer, fill our information request form.

Your own travel tourbook is $100 for every day of travel ($200 minimum), plus a fee for each reservation.

If you like, combine your visit to Normandy with a stay in Paris or with a tour of Brittany or of the Loire Valley.

Walk on the beaches, visit the battlefields and the museums, remember those who fought and died for freedom. We'll take you through the countryside, from the early morning of June 6, 1944, to the end of the battle of Normandy in mid-August.
